Hi everyone

I’m getting some nasty interlacing from the HDHomeRun → Plex

When watching via the HDHomeRun android app, it appears to be correctly deinterlaced: [Screenshot - e7e3aea941b898e0fd82765e6792d95e - Gyazo](https://gyazo.com/e7e3aea941b898e0fd82765e6792d95e)

Is there anything I can do about this?

Scrolling text? Looks more like aliasing than interlacing.

Plex Media Player is no longer being updated, the functionality has been spit into two. Big Screen is Plex HTPC and Windowed is [Plex for Windows](https://downloads.plex.tv/plex-desktop/1.44.0.2981-e2d72ac2/windows/Plex-1.44.0.2981-e2d72ac2-x86_64.exe) . I mention this because even if there is a problem it won’t be fixed in the old product.

I’m using the Linux Desktop app [GitHub - plexinc/plex-media-player: Next generation Plex Desktop/Embedded Client](https://github.com/plexinc/plex-media-player)

Is there something more recent? (It definitely is interlacing, btw - compare the static (green) to the text which is slowly scrolling to the left (blue) [Screenshot - f491dcfcf1e73d7c1c086b17be1985cd - Gyazo](https://gyazo.com/f491dcfcf1e73d7c1c086b17be1985cd) )

I’ve just finally managed to get this awful “snap” thing installed and I’m now running the new app.

The interlacing is still clearly visible. MPV has a high quality built-in deinterlacer… can you please fix this, plex?
